The Suffolk County health department, however, warned in a statement, "Ingestion of liquid nitrogen can cause severe damage to the mouth, esophagus, and stomach.

"Dragon's Breath is a food novelty made by freezing cereal puffs in liquid nitrogen. The frozen cereal is then served in a cup and eaten using a skewer or similar utensil. Liquid nitrogen can cause damage to a person's skin and internal organs and, if inhaled, it can cause asphyxiation (lack of oxygen)."
